If I'm on an early shift, breakfast is a couple of fat slices of genoa cake washed down with coffee. But if I'm having 'breakfast' it looks like this...

Two poached eggs on a slice of fried bread. Three bacon, two sausage, one slice of black pudding. Button mushrooms friend in butter and smothered in coarsely ground black pepper and a dollop of grainy mustard. No beans. No Tomato. And definitely no hash browns.
Now that's a breakfast!

No black pudding for me, but hash browns/saute potatoes, and toast instead. :smile:

Hash Browns need to stay on the vegan/vege breakfast where they belong.

edit... someone from Bolton snubbing black pudding! I bet you keep that quiet.

If you mean those funny little frozen triangles of waxy potato-like stuff then they should go in the bin, if you make your own real ones with grated spuds they're fuggin brilliant.

You are correct. Fried tomatoes are an abomination. And bean juice mixing with egg yolk! Yuk!xx(

inspired by this thread, I am going to sell the kids a dummy this Sunday and say we are going to Tesco's and go to my local Brunch serving restaurant and have either this

Or this, or both

It's a bit more complicated than that...
It surely has to be porridge

I gather some people like this stuff, though I've found on trips to our training centre that adding hot water to a pot of ordinary chopped oats gives you a reasonable result.

You need to refine your plating up logistics.

A massive plate helps.
The sausage should be used as a natural breakwater between the beans and egg. Alan Partridge knows his breakfast, and has a big plate. I tend to leave the beans out because there's not quite enough room in my belly. And if i ever get a breakfast in a cafe, i always ask for no beans because all too often, they're watered down and slapped on top of the egg. It's just not worth the risk.



in fact, I think cafes offering a full English should be rated by Alan and if the rules are adhered to, are permitted to display the Partridge Approved Breakfast Badge. That way i could safely order beans with my breakfast.

Thing is, if you've got enough stuff on your plate you have the tools to form a barrier to stop an egg/bean collision without having to resort to the horror that is...
